1 9.2 One-way Slabs This section covers the following topics. Introduction Analysis and Design Introduction Slabs are an important structural component where prestressing is applied. With increase in the demand for fast track, economical and efficient construction, prestressed slabs are becoming popular. The slabs are presented in two groups: one-way slabs and two-way slabs. The two-way slabs are presented in details in Sections 9.3 and 9.4. Rectangular slabs can be divided into the two groups based on the support conditions and length-to-breadth ratios. The one-way slabs are identified as follows. 1) When a rectangular slab is supported only on two opposite edges, it is a one-way slab spanning in the direction perpendicular to the edges. Precast planks fall in this group. 2) When a rectangular slab is supported on all the four edges and the length-tobreadth (L / B) ratio is equal to or greater than two, the slab is considered to be a one-way slab. The slab spans predominantly in the direction parallel to the shorter edge. The following sketches show the plans of the two cases of one-way slabs. The spanning direction in each case is shown by the double headed arrow. B L L (a) (b) (a) Supported on two opposite edges (b) Supported on all edges (L/B > 2) Figure Plans of one-way slabs

2 A slab in a framed building can be a one-way slab depending upon its length-to-breadth ratio. A one-way slab is designed for the spanning direction only. For the transverse direction, a minimum amount of reinforcement is provided. A hollow core slab is also an example of a one-way slab. A ribbed floor (slab with joists) made of precast double tee sections, is analysed as a flanged section for one-way bending. Other types of rectangular slabs and non-rectangular slabs are considered to be twoway slabs. If a rectangular slab is supported on all the four sides and the length-tobreadth ratio is less than two, then it is a two-way slab. If a slab is supported on three edges or two adjacent edges, then also it is a two-way slab. A slab in a framed building can be a two-way slab depending upon its length-to-breadth ratio. A two-way slab is designed for both the orthogonal directions. A slab is prestressed for the following benefits. 1) Increased span-to-depth ratio Typical values of span-to-depth ratios in slabs are given below. Non-prestressed slab 28:1 Prestressed slab 45:1 2) Reduction in self-weight 3) Section remains uncracked under service loads Increased durability 4) Quick release of formwork Fast construction 5) Reduction in fabrication of reinforcement 6) More flexibility in accommodating late design changes. Precast planks are usually pre-tensioned. Cast-in-situ slabs are post-tensioned. Posttensioned slabs are becoming popular in office and commercial buildings and parking structures, where large column-free spaces are desirable. The maximum length of a post-tensioned slab is limited to 30 to 40 m to minimise the losses due to elastic shortening and friction. Slabs can be composite for the benefits of reduction in form work, cost and time of construction and quality control. A precast plank can be prestressed and placed in the final location. A topping slab is overlaid on the precast plank. The grades of concrete in

3 the two portions can be different. The following sketches show the sections of some one-way slabs. Cast-in-situ topping Precast and prestressed plank Figure Cross-section of a composite slab Analysis and Design One-way slabs are analysed and designed for the spanning direction similar to rectangular beams. The analysis and design is carried out for the width of the plank or a unit width (say 1 m) of the slab. For continuous slabs, the moment coefficients of IS: (Table 12) can be used. The analysis and design procedures for simply supported rectangular beams are covered in Sections 3.2 to 3.6 and Sections 4.2 to 4.6, respectively. These materials are briefly reproduced here. Preliminary Design 1) Select the material properties f ck and f pk. Here, f ck is the characteristic compressive strength of concrete and f pk is the characteristic tensile strength of prestressing steel. 2) Determine the total depth of slab (h), based on the span to effective depth ratio (L / d), given in Clause 22.6 of IS: Consider d h 25 mm. Round off h to a multiple of 10 mm. 3) Calculate the self weight. 4) Calculate the total moment (M T ) including moment due to self weight (M sw ). 5) Estimate the lever arm (z). z = 0.65 h if M sw is large (say M sw > 0.3 M T ) z = 0.5 h if M sw is small. 6) Estimate the effective prestress (P e ). P e = M T /z if M sw is large P e = M I L /z if M sw is small. Here, the moment due to imposed loads is given as M I L = M T M sw. 7) Considering f pe = 0.7 f pk, calculate area of prestressing steel A p = P e / f pe.

4 8) Check the area of cross section (A) A = 1000 mm h mm. The average stress C/A should not be too high as compared to 50% f cc,all. Final Design The final design involves the checking of the stresses in concrete at transfer and under service loads with respect to the allowable stresses. The allowable stresses depend on the type of slab (Type 1, Type 2 or Type 3). Here, the steps of final design are explained for Type 1 slabs only. For Type 1 slabs, no tensile stress is allowed at transfer or under service loads. For small moment due to self-weight (M sw 0.3 M T ), the steps are as follows. 1) Calculate eccentricity (e) to locate the centroid of the prestressing steel (CGS). The lowest permissible location of the compression (C) due to self-weight is at the bottom kern point (at a depth k b below CGC) to avoid tensile stress at the top. The design procedure based on the extreme location of C gives an economical section. For this location of C, the following equation can be derived. M (9-2.1) P 0 sw e= +kb The magnitude of C or T is equal to P 0, the prestress at transfer after initial losses. The value of P 0 can be estimated as follows. a) P 0 = 0.9 P i for pre-tensioned slab b) P 0 = P i for post-tensioned slab Here, P i is the initial applied prestress. The permissible prestress in the tendon is 0.8f pk. P i = (0.8f pk ) A p (9-2.2) 2) Re-compute the effective prestress P e and the area of prestressing steel A p. For the extreme top location of C under service load, the shift of C due to the total moment gives an expression of P e.

5 M T P= e (9-2.3) e+k T For solid rectangular slab, k b = k t = h / 6. Considering f pe = 0.7f pk, the area of prestressing steel is recomputed as follows. A p = P e / f pe (9-2.4) The number of tendons and their spacing is determined based on A p. The value of P 0 is updated. 3) Re-compute e with the updated values of A p and P 0. If the variation of e from the previous value is large, another cycle of computation of the prestressing variables can be undertaken. For large M sw if e violates the cover requirements, e is determined based on cover. 4) Check the compressive stresses in concrete For the limiting no tension design at transfer, the stress at the bottom (f b ) is given as follows. P h 2P f b =- =- Ac A 0 0 t (9-2.5) The stress should be less than f cc,all, where f cc,all is the allowable compressive stress in concrete at transfer. The condition to satisfy can thus be written as f b f cc,all. For the limiting no tension design at service, the stress at the top (f t ) is given as follows. P h 2P t Ac A e f =- =- b e (9-2.6) The stress should be less than f cc,all, where f cc,all is the allowable compressive stress in concrete at service. The condition to satisfy can be written as f t f cc,all. For Type 2 and Type 3 slabs, the tensile stress should be restricted to the allowable values. For a continuous slab, a suitable profile of the tendons is selected similar to that

6 in continuous beams. The design of continuous beams is covered in Sections 8.2 and 8.3. When the value of e is fixed (in either pre-tension or post-tension operations), the design steps are simpler. If the tendons are placed at the CGC (e = 0), then the uniform compressive stress due to prestress counteracts the tensile stress due to service loads. To have zero stress at the bottom under service conditions, the value of P e can be directly calculated from the following equation. Pe MT = A Zb M P=A Z or, e T (9-2.7) b Z b is the section modulus. The above expression is same as P e = M T / k t, with e = 0. The stresses at transfer can be checked with an estimate of P 0 from P e. 5) Checking for shear capacity The shear is analogous to that generates in a beam due to flexure. The calculations can be for unit width of the slab. The critical section for checking the shear capacity is at a distance effective depth d from the face of the beam, across the entire width of the slab. The critical section is transverse to the spanning direction. The shear demand (V u ) in the critical section generates from the gravity loads in the tributary area. d Tributary area Critical section Figure Tributary area and critical section for shear For adequate shear capacity, V ur V u where, V ur = V c, the shear capacity of uncracked concrete of unit width of slab. The expression of V c is given in Section 5.2, Design for Shear (Part I). If this is not satisfied, it is preferred to increase the depth of the slab to avoid shear reinforcement.

7 6) Provide transverse reinforcement based on temperature and shrinkage. As per IS: , Clause , the minimum amount of transverse reinforcement (A st,min in mm 2 ) for unit width of slab is given as follows. A st,min = 0.15% 1000 h for Fe 250 grade of steel = 0.12% 1000 h for Fe 415 grade of steel. Usually the transverse reinforcement is provided by non-prestressed reinforcement. The minimum reinforcement is sufficient for the transverse moment due to Poisson s effect and small point loads. For a heavy point load, transverse reinforcement needs to be computed explicitly. The following example shows the design of a simply supported precast prestressed composite slab.

Example Design a simply supported precast prestressed (Type 1) composite slab for the following data. Width of the slab = 0.3 m Clear span = 2.9 m Effective span (L) = 3.1 m Thickness of the precast plank = 50 mm Thickness of the cast-in-situ topping slab = 50 mm Grade of concrete in precast plank : M60 Grade of concrete in topping slab : M15 The pre-tensioned tendons are located at mid depth of the precast slab. During the casting of the topping, planks are not propped.
